“Goheen and Bartholomew trace the deep roots of our contemporary Western worldview . . . But alongside that, they do an equally good job in presenting the biblical worldview as a story that tells it like it is, for life, the universe, and everything. . . .

Which road to we travel from the crossroads?”(Christopher Wright)

“This is a vivid introduction to reading the Bible as a coherent story of God's purposes for the world. It will not only help the new reader but will also enable the experienced reader to distinguish the central themes of Scripture from mere sidelights.” (Gordon Wenham)
